Question
Is it possible for a lens implant that functioned well for 8 years to be dislocated due to a strong auto collision from the side?
Answer
Dear William,
Yes, the lens can be dislocated due to trauma. However, re implanting another lens is the query?
Dislocation requires a vitreo- retinal surgeon to remove the same and assess the situation for implanting another lens as various types are available.
This depends on the condition of the eye.
However, definitely needs to be acted upon immediately.
Hope this helps,
Best,
Dr Shroff
